- VladRussian2 13y agoi think there is a whole big unexplored story with the "black" ... err ..."Special Source Operations" money what NSA pays to Google/FB/etc... for their services in secret programs like PRISM - for example how the companies "launder" the money so they can be reported [to SEC, etc...] as part of the "white" revenue. Or may be this money not reported? Special secret exception in special secret GAAP/SEC rules? "excluding special one-time non-GAAP items and secret revenue from NSA our earnings is ..." :) For example, government agencies buying "likes" from FB - seems like a perfect way to pay for PRISM participation using kosher looking transactions. http://thecable.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2013/07/02/omg_state_department_dropped_630000_on_facebook_likes http://thecable.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2013/07/02/omg_state...
